Integrated Assessment and Management of Public Resources
Author: JosephCooper
Publisher: Edward Elgar Publishing
ISBN: 184542882X
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 251
Book Description
This multidisciplinary work explores ways of making environmental policy decisions regarding the management of public goods and natural parks with the goal of maximizing economic benefits to society. The contributors to the volume seek the best strategies for improving the environmental sustainability and quality of a public resource by showing how to develop quantitative information about the natural area and how it interacts with the economy. Such an analysis can be used to define policies that encourage interactions among institutions, local economic agents and park users. At the same time, it provides a measure to account for the implications of those policies on the local economy.

Estimation of an Almost Ideal Demand System for U.S. Food with Household and Aggregate Data
The Econometrics of Demand Systems
Author: David L. Edgerton
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1461312779
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 293
Book Description
This book contains some of the results from the research project "Demand for Food in the Nordic Countries", which was initiated in 1988 by Professor Olof Bolin of the Agricultural University in Ultuna, Sweden and by Professor Karl Iohan Weckman, of the University of Helsinki, Finland. A pilot study was carried out by Bengt Assarsson, which in 1989 led to a successful application for a research grant from the NKJ (The Nordic Contact Body for Agricultural Research) through the national research councils for agricultural research in Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden. We are very grateful to Olof Bolin and Karl Iohan Weckman, without whom this project would not have come about, and to the national research councils in the Nordic countries for the generous financial support we have received for this project. We have received comments and suggestions from many colleagues, and this has improved our work substantially. At the start of the project a reference group was formed, consisting of Professor Olof Bolin, Professor Anders Klevmarken, Agr. lie. Gert Aage Nielsen, Professor Karl Iohan Weckman and Cando oecon. Per Halvor Vale. Gert Aage Nielsen left the group early in the project for a position in Landbanken, and was replaced by Professor Lars Otto, while Per Halvor Vale soon joined the research staff. The reference group has given us useful suggestions and encouraged us in our work. Weare very grateful to them.

Habits and Autocorrelation in the Almost Ideal Demand System Applied to Food
Author: Laura Blanciforti
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Autocorrelation (Statistics)
Languages : en
Pages : 36
Book Description
Extract: A complete system of budget share equations for U.S. food consumption was estimated using alternative specifications of the Almost Ideal Demand System (AIDS) and four food groups. The specifications accounted for habits, through a systematic change in one of the parameters, and first-order autocorrelation. The theoretical structure of the AIDS enabled the utility maximization framework to remain intact, satisfied the theoretical properties pertaining to demand systems, and provided a way to ascertain the amount that habits affected current consumption. Likelihood ratio tests indicated that both habits and autocorrelation were present.

Opportunities and Challenges in Development
Author: Simanti Bandyopadhyay
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 9811399816
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 573
Book Description
This book provides a broad overview of the current research on various aspects of development, with a focus on India. The content and treatment of the subject of development in this volume is distinctive in many ways. It is a balanced mix of theory and practical elements, dealing with a number of issues at micro as well as macro levels. The analyses of the current socio-economic problems are attempted in an elegant yet simple manner which makes it equally useful for an aspiring researcher in economics or any inter disciplinary field. The methodologies of the articles include analytical verbal argumentative logic, theoretical constructs or different versions of statistical, econometric or programming techniques. It also contains well written survey articles, which are useful in grasping the fundamental research issues and in tracing the progress of research in an area. The general scope of the book is very wide as the readership can include researchers, scholars, graduate and undergraduate students, policy makers and practitioners. Though the contributors are primarily scholars in the field of Economics or Statistics, the book contains useful takeaways for those working in the area of Development. It will also be of interest to policy makers and practitioners interested in development issues, and to post graduate students in Economics or any field, in social science, management or development.
